\opening{Dear Dr Sorniotti} 
 
I would like to apply for the research fellow post currently advertised on QUB website. I couldn't help noticing how well the requirements align with my experience, education, skills, and background. I am extremely interested in contributing as a part of the project team. The attached CV shows details about my qualifications and experience.

As you will see from the CV, my principal research interests lie in the field of automatic control and system identification. 
I spent two years of university time on robot competitions and two years of mater research on construction of an networked control platform. These experiences helped me to realised how important mathematical theories are in supervising practical applications. So I spent another three years of PhD research on system identification. The motivation behind is that I have a strong passion to applied knowledges learned to practical applications. During my PhD research, I was also involved in a polymer processing optimization research. Thus, I familiar with such area and understand that my experiences quite suite this post. 

I am a conscientious person who works hard and pays attention to detail. I'm flexible, quick to pick up new skills and eager to learn from others. 

I hope you'll find my qualifications and my research experience a good match with what you're looking for. Thank you very much for your attention and consideration.
\closing{ Yours sincerely}
